I think this is getting blown out of proportion here. zachvac wasn't irresponsible with his "[B]illegal"[/B] under-age activities. I smoked cigarettes when I was underage. Shoot me for that!
 
The reality is that there are underage people playing and some are even very good players. The OP was about a kid who could not control his emotions. This reminds me of Phil Helmuth. Should we ban Phil Helmuth from playing because he has the emotional maturity of a 5-year old?
 
Of course in the OP, that kid voluntary revealed he is doing something he knows he is not supposed to. This would be like me walking in the principal's office with a lit cigarette. I am sure zacvac wasn't bragging online he was underage. He had a more responsible attitude than many adults.
 
Also, if all kids are that irresponsible at 17, why are they allowed to drive cars with the potential to kill someone on the road?
 
The bottom line is that we have all broken various laws. I don't consider an underage poker player to be a bigger threat to society than a gang member or hard-drugs user at that age. So let's keep things in the proper perspective.
